Boom——
There was a sudden loud thunder in the night of southern Xinjiang.
The deafening thunder made the window frames tremble.
Elder Lou rested in the Elders' Hall.
She hasn't been back for a while, and she's happy to be able to avoid those annoying little guys and have some peace and quiet.
But she was old and didn’t sleep as well as young people, so she was suddenly awakened by the thunder.
The thunder is too loud. It would be bad if it struck us.
Elder Lou sighed and stood up to close the window.
A flash of lightning illuminated the sky and the earth as bright as day.
When she turned around, she saw a shadowy figure standing at the door.
"ah!"
She was almost scared to death!
The figure walked towards her and smiled quietly: "Grandma, long time no see."
Elder Lou was shocked! Why is this annoying little guy here again? He didn't say a word. Is he pretending to be dead in the middle of the night? !
She pushed open the window that had just been closed. Maybe the thunder would strike her to death!
Su Xuan handed her a box of snacks.
Elder Lou decisively refused: "I don't want to eat this!"
Su Xuan smiled slightly: "It's not bought from outside, it's made by Cheng Su."
Su Xuan gave the snacks made by Su Xiaoxiao to Elder Lou to taste once.
One taste will ruin your life.
Elder Lou glared at the annoying little guy and said, "What do you want to do now?"
"I want to ask my mother-in-law to do me a small favor."
“No help!”
The little troublemaker is always busy. She just said she came to southern Xinjiang for fun, but what happened? She stayed at her place and refused to leave! She will not be fooled by the little troublemaker again!
Su Xuan still maintained his obedient smile: "This favor will also be beneficial to the Saint Maiden Palace."
When the Saint Maiden Hall was mentioned, Elder Lou looked at him suspiciously and asked, "Did you guys cause the Saint Maiden's disappearance?"
Su Xuan said innocently: "It has nothing to do with me."
Elder Lou said coldly: "Can you guarantee that it has nothing to do with your accomplices?"
Su Xuan: “No guarantee.”
Elder Lou: “…”
Elder Lou said impatiently: "If you have something to say, say it now. If you have something to fart, fart now!"
Su Xuan stated his request.
Elder Lou was so angry that he wanted to throw him out: "Why did I fall into your hands in the first place?"
…
After the lightning and thunder, a rainstorm hit the capital of Southern Xinjiang.
The common people had already fallen asleep, but a large group of imperial guards, wearing straw raincoats, were galloping on horseback in the heavy rain.
The guards split into several groups and went to different streets and alleys, knocking on the doors of every house.
The Holy Maiden Hall also received an imperial edict - the Holy Maiden was missing. It was the arsonist who injured the third prince in the palace a few days ago who did the thing. The King of Southern Xinjiang ordered the Holy Maiden Hall to join the search.
Naturally, the Holy Maiden Temple itself would also be searched.
Every corner of the Holy Maiden's Palace was searched, even the Holy Maiden's bedroom and secret room were not spared.
The Imperial Guards also went to the four great families.
Old Master Yin’s secret room was discovered, and he had no choice but to let the Imperial Guards turn the Yin family’s house upside down.
The leading guard said, "Master Yin, please call everyone in the mansion, including the servants."
Old Master Yin gave the order.
Soon, more than a hundred people from the Yin family gathered in the big garden in the heavy rain.
The leading guard took out two portraits, compared them, and pointed at a maid: "You, come out!"
The maid came out trembling.
The guard lifted her face by the hilt of his sword.
The heavy rain continued to wash her face, leaving no trace of disguise.
The guards called a few maids and several tall and thin men to check them one by one.
Yin Chongshan glanced at his father calmly.
The women called out by the guards all had a similar figure to the saint, while the men called out had a similar figure to the real majesty.
Catching the arsonist is fake, searching for the saint and the real majesty is real.
The Cheng family was also searched, even the cellar was not spared.
Su Xiaoxiao stood by Cheng Sang's bed, watching the guards rummaging through the room with a calm expression.
Changliu Lane was not searched until after daybreak, when the heavy rain had stopped.
Wei Ting and his group were all called into the yard, except Wei Xiyue.
She is a child and the characteristics do not match.
Wei Ting removed his disguise early, and Wei Liulang also took off his mask.
But this time, the King of Southern Xinjiang was looking for the Saint Girl and Zong Zhenghui, not Wei Xu.
The reason why not look for Wei Xu is very simple.
First, finding Zong Zhenghui is more urgent.
Secondly, the envoys of the Great Zhou were still in the royal capital. If the news leaked out, wouldn’t the envoys find out that Wei Xu had been imprisoned by the King of Southern Xinjiang?
As for Zong Zhenghui, he is too easy to recognize. There is no need to draw his face. Just looking at his body shape and skin color is enough.
After the guards left, Wei Liulang asked worriedly, "Will Dad be discovered? Is Su Xuan reliable? He wanted to kill Dad before—"
When Su Xiaoxiao took Zong Zhenghui to find the head of the Yin family, Wei Ting went to find Su Xuan, told him about Zong Zhenghui and the saint, and asked him to find a hiding place for them.
Because next, the King of Southern Xinjiang will definitely search the entire city.
Wei Qing said: "Don't worry, as long as he agrees, he will definitely be able to do it."
Wei Qing called him: "Brother, where do you want to go now?"
Gui Bu said seriously: "Go out for a walk! You've been bored at home all night!"
He strode out of the yard at a brisk pace.
After closing the gate, he quickly went to the next room. Just as he was about to draw his sword, he saw three naughty little brats standing in the corridor, staring at him without blinking.
Da Hu is holding a small guqin.
Erhu was holding a small gong.
Xiaohu has a small erhu hanging on his waist and a small suona in his hand.
They wanted to play music for the master, but the master went to sleep.
When the three little ones saw Gui Bu, their eyes lit up! Gui Bu's tiger body trembled and he ran away!
Unfortunately, it was too late, the three little ones had already caught him.
Ling Yun leisurely stuffed two balls of cotton into his ears.
Fight him? First, defeat his three little evil disciples.
…
The search lasted for five full days, not only were the imperial guards dispatched, but also the various government offices and the King of Southern Xinjiang's private guards were mobilized. They almost turned the royal capital upside down, but still found nothing.
"Did the Saint take him out of the capital?"
Xie Jinnian brought the clothes over and said, "Your Majesty, it's time to attend the court."
How could the King of Southern Xinjiang be in the mood to attend court early in the morning?
He won't be at peace until he finds that person.
However, as the Great Zhou is about to send troops, perhaps there will be intelligence coming from the border.
The King of Southern Xinjiang still put on the dragon robe with a sullen face.
But for some reason, his heart was pounding and he always felt that something bad was going to happen.
When he stepped out of Chengde Hall, he even accidentally fell.
Fortunately, Xie Jinnian was quick-witted and supported him in time.
"Your Majesty, please be careful." Xie Jin said in a young voice.
The King of Southern Xinjiang frowned, shook off Xie Jinnian's support, and walked towards the Golden Palace.
He sat on the high dragon throne, overlooking the civil and military officials in the court.
Xie Jinnian said, "If you have something to say, please report it. If not, please leave the court!"
All the officials could see that His Majesty was in a bad mood today, and some of them did not dare to report anything.
Just as the King of Southern Xinjiang was about to leave the court, a loud thunder suddenly sounded in the sky.
Everyone was shocked and felt their ears were numb.
Thunder in broad daylight is an ominous sign in southern Xinjiang.
The King of Southern Xinjiang's right hand began to tremble unconsciously.
He realized that he was sick again and needed that person's blood again...
Xie Jinnian caught a glimpse of his strangeness and asked, "Your Majesty, do you want to adjourn the court?"
The King of Southern Xinjiang nodded.
Xie Jinnian said to the civil and military officials: "Retreat——"
"Report——"
A guard with a sword rushed into the throne room in a hurry, knelt on one knee and saluted: "Your Majesty! The Saint requests an audience!"
All the civil and military officials were shocked.
The Saint is back? Your Majesty has been looking for her all over the capital for days, and she shows up on her own? All the civil and military officials want to see the Saint.
There was no trace of joy on the King of Southern Xinjiang's face.
The Saint had kidnapped that person, and her sudden return was definitely not a good thing! The King of Southern Xinjiang made a prompt decision: "Let her wait for me in the Imperial Study, and you all can leave the court!"
As he spoke, he immediately stood up from the dragon chair, as if he was afraid that his movements were not fast enough.
Everyone felt that his majesty's reaction was a little strange, but they didn't take it to heart. They cupped their hands and held the tablet, ready to kneel down in salute.
Suddenly, there was a noise outside.
Immediately afterwards, a royal guard was knocked flying by a palm and fell heavily into the Golden Palace.
All the civil and military officials were startled again and looked out the door in unison.
The saint came in wearing a veil, holding a long whip and with a fierce look in her eyes.
Behind her, there followed a man wearing a black cloak and a black hat, wrapping himself tightly from head to toe.
"Who is he? Why is he with the Saint?"
"Didn't you see that the Saint came in to kill me?"
"What's going on?"
Civil and military officials began to whisper to each other, not understanding what was going on.
Why did the saint who had been missing for several days suddenly come to the Golden Palace with a man? The King of Southern Xinjiang knew it very well.
The moment the other person appeared, his entire expression changed.
Xie Jinnian said coldly: "Come here! The Saint Girl has trespassed into the Golden Palace, arrest her!"
A large group of guards rushed in and surrounded the saint and the man.
Zong Zhenghui took off his hat and lowered the hood of his cloak, revealing his face as pale as paper.
There was a sound of gasps in the Golden Throne Hall! This man looked so much like His Majesty! His facial features were almost identical! But his skin color was too pale and his cheeks were too thin. He didn't look like a living person.
But he has an innate aura that makes people dare not underestimate him.
The King of Southern Xinjiang stared at Zong Zhenghui with a sharp gaze, and no sound came out of his throat.
Zong Zhenghui smiled faintly, his eyes cold: "Brother, I haven't seen you for many years. Do you still like my throne?"
